Reading
Good Readers Question While Reading, but HOW? and WHY?
Thick and Thin Questions
The text we are using to model and practice is in our reading book. It is titled My Very Own Room. We will not be testing on this story, but using it as a tool to learn how asking questions makes us better readers.

Please make sure you are signing your child's homework agenda every night. Students keep track of daily behavior and homework in the agenda.
Every Thursday, students will bring home school communication (Thursday) folders. Please go over the papers in the folder with your child & then sign beside each new paper on the grade sheet. The signed folder should be returned by Monday.
We are in need of paper towel and toilet paper rolls. We are using them in science. If you have any extra, please send them in!
